Our Environmental Policy Statement

Based on a strong vision for a more sustainable future we created Sleep Green, an Eco Youth Hostel in the center of Barcelona. To make recognizable to the customer that we operate to high standards of performance and advocate socially and environmentally sustainable business practices, we applied for the EU Ecolabel, an award for products and services, which meet the highest environmental standards.

At Sleep Green we acknowledge that an accommodation provider has a negative impact on the environment. To minimize harmful effects of our business activities to the fullest extent we have taken the following action steps:

Renewable Energy

We contracted an electricity company providing 100% of our energy from renewable sources

Light Bulbs

Across Sleep Green Hostel you will se that we have solely installed LED light bulbs to cut energy consumption

Recycling

We have created facilities to easily recycle and separate waste

Products

We only use biodegradable cleaning products and recycled toilet paper as well as office paper

Inform

We inform guests of our environmental management and encourage them to support us with achieving our environmental goals

Training

Appliances

The majority of our electrical appliances on site are rated A+++ with a minimum of A+ energy efficiency

Water

All of our shower-heads and taps are push taps to minimize Sleep Green’s water consumption

Into the Future

The environmental values we practice today will have lasting benefits on the world as a whole moving forward. We want to preserve the beauty of our city and natural wonders and believe that by fostering our commitment to sustainable initiatives we will ensure that in future only environmentally sustainable processes, pollution prevention, and a continuous improvement in the design of our facilities and execution of our services on offer in relation to the environment are implemented. Further we will:
